Lost contact: blue Moleskine notebook with emergency contacts

I lost my blue Moleskine pocket notebook yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on State Street by Paseo Nuevo. It's a pocket-sized notebook about 3.5 by 5.5 inches, with a black elastic band and a slightly worn blue cover. Inside I keep emergency contacts and a few handwritten reminders; the first page has my initials 'PK' in silver ink, and there’s a small green panda sticker on the back cover. The notebook means a lot to me because it holds my grandma’s handwriting and a few irreplaceable notes, I really need it back. If anyone found it, please email me at [email protected]. I’d be grateful and can offer a small reward.

Black leather coin album with red stitching

I lost my black leather coin album from the 1990s yesterday around 3pm near the Central Library on Anacapa Street in Santa Barbara. It's a 9x11 inch album with red stitching along the spine and a small crease on the bottom-right corner. The cover is smooth faux leather with a faint embossed crest in the center, and inside there are about 40 coins plus a small card with my initials "A.Y." in the corner. It has sentimental value—my grandfather taught me coin collecting, and that binder was one of the few keepsakes I have from him. If found, email me at [email protected]; I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.

Black iPhone 12 Pro with initials J.S.

I lost my black iPhone 12 Pro yesterday around 3pm after leaving the coffee shop near the Santa Barbara Bowl on Milpas Street. The phone is in a clear case with my initials 'J.S.' engraved on the back, and there's a noticeable crack along the top edge. It still functions and holds sentimental photos from my grandmother, plus a few work notes in the Notes app. I rely on it daily for calls, messages, and calendars, so I’m really hoping someone turned it in. If you found it, email me at [email protected] so we can arrange a safe handoff somewhere downtown Santa Barbara.

Gold ring with emerald, sentimental heirloom

I lost my gold ring yesterday around 3pm near Stearns Wharf along Cabrillo Boulevard in Santa Barbara. It's a 14k gold band, size 6, with a small emerald set in the crown. Inside the band is engraved with my initials 'P.P.' and there are a few faint scratches from daily wear. It was a gift from my grandmother and means a lot to me, so I’m really hoping it turns up. If anyone found it, please reach out—I'd be forever grateful to be reunited with it.

Blue inhaler in red case, lost near library

Hey, I lost my inhaler today. It's a blue and white inhaler in a bright red silicone protective case that has a small white sticker with 'MediCare' scratched on the back and a tiny dent on the corner from a drop last week. I last had it yesterday around 4pm near the Santa Barbara Public Library on East Anapamu Street, by the benches outside the main entrance. It's essential for my asthma, and I really need it back today—without it I could have trouble breathing. If you find it, please text me anytime; I can pick it up where it's convenient.

Teak end table with brass drawer

I found a small mid-century teak end table with a single drawer. It’s about 20 inches square, with tapered legs and a brass handle on the drawer. The finish is warm honey teak with a couple of light scratches along the edges and a tiny water stain on top. I spotted it this afternoon around 4:15 pm outside Trader Joe’s on State Street in Santa Barbara. It seems to be in decent shape, just a little lived-in, and I figured someone might be missing a little piece of furniture after tidying up at home. If this is yours, reach out with a description of the drawer pull and the top stain, and I’ll hold onto it for you.

Nintendo Switch OLED with neon controllers found downtown

I found a Nintendo Switch OLED model with neon red/blue controllers this afternoon around 2:30pm, sitting on a bench outside the Santa Barbara Central Library on East Anapamu Street. It’s in decent shape, the screen looks clean with a protective film intact, and the neon Joy-Cons still click nicely. It’s tucked in a blue silicone case and has a small pink heart sticker on the back, which makes it pretty easy to spot. There’s a faint scratch on the screen protector when the light hits just right. I’m posting this here to help the owner get it back; if you recognize these details, I’ll hand it over to you as soon as we can verify ownership.

Navy hoodie with red logo found near Stearns Wharf

I found a navy North Face hoodie this afternoon around 2:15 pm outside the Stearns Wharf entrance by the Santa Barbara harbor. It's a men's size M, in decent used condition with a small coffee stain on the cuff and a bright orange interior lining. The red drawstrings and a tiny surfer pin on the zipper pull are unique identifying touches. This casual-wear piece has clearly been through a few beach days, and I know it could mean a lot to someone who lost it. If these details sound like yours, send me a message and we’ll figure out next steps.
